on other paper if you want to be creative. Please refer to the directions below.

Answered questions. Use the question sheet attached to answer the questions. Rubric
DIRECTIONS: Write a business word problem that uses matrix multiplication. Make your problem similar to Question 46 on page 188. The requirements are as follows:

A minimum of four items that are being sold. A different cost for each item (no cost can be 0.) There are at least 6 stores in the chain. All items must be sold at all stores. Each store should
sell a different total of each item.

Write a row matrix for the cost of the items. This is the cost matrix. Label the matrix correctly.
Example: I1 $# I2 I3 I4 $# $# $#

Write another matrix for the total of each item sold at each store. This is the sales matrix.
Label the matrix correctly. o The rows will be the items. o The columns will be the stores. I1 Example: I2 I3 I4 A # # # # B # # # # C # # # # D # # # # E # # # # F # # # #

Find the product matrix. Label the matrix correctly. SHOW ALL WORK. Neatly answer the questions attached.
